Answer 2

Free samples. Most magazines (for whatever their area of expertise is) evaluate products that are provided to them for that purpose from manufacturers. You may want to do a little market research locally first and see what the public thinks. A good report by an independent agency can help.

Network, Creativity, Network, Sales, Network, Follow up, Network, build relationships.

Big business is built much like a brick home, one block at a time with good craftsmanship and mortar. Creativity, Sales, Follow UP Skills, Relationships being the bricks, networking being the mortar that extends your capabilities.

I have found LinkedIn and Yahoo Groups in addition to traditional business presentations seems to be a natural component to creating new business.

We are creating resources for other business professionals to get started in online networking as well.. check out the start at http://helpingfriendscareernetwork.com/network.html
